We offer a full spectrum of restorative treatments to address every level of dental need.
Dental implants represent the pinnacle of tooth replacement technology. By placing a small titanium post into your jawbone, we create a new, permanent “root” to anchor a custom-made crown. This solution is uniquely stable, prevents bone loss, and functions identically to a natural tooth. It’s the ideal, standalone solution for replacing one or several missing teeth without ever compromising the health or structure of your adjacent, healthy teeth.
The All-on-4® technique revolutionizes full-arch tooth replacement. Using just four strategically placed implants, we can support a complete, fixed set of prosthetic teeth for an entire upper or lower jaw. This innovative protocol provides a permanent, non-removable smile that feels and functions naturally, often in a single day. It is the premier solution for patients missing most or all of their teeth or those seeking to replace problematic dentures.
Snap-on dentures offer a transformative upgrade from traditional dentures. Secured by two or more dental implants, these prosthetics click firmly into place, eliminating the slipping and discomfort of conventional options. This solution restores significant chewing power and daily confidence without the need for messy adhesives. It is the perfect choice for current denture wearers seeking remarkable improvements in stability, comfort, and overall quality of life.
A dental bridge is a reliable restorative solution for replacing one or more missing teeth, helping restore the appearance, function, and balance of your smile. At Dental Arts of Florida, Dr. Fred Tepedino custom-designs dental bridges that blend naturally with your surrounding teeth while restoring your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence. Whether you’ve lost a tooth due to decay, injury, or gum disease, a bridge can fill the gap and prevent neighboring teeth from shifting out of place.
Crafted from durable, high-quality materials, each bridge is designed for long-lasting comfort and a natural appearance. Our team uses advanced technology and a personalized approach to ensure your restoration fits securely and supports your long-term oral health. As part of our comprehensive restorative dentistry in Jacksonville, FL, dental bridges provide a dependable solution for rebuilding healthy, functional smiles.
Wondering if restorative dentistry is right for you? The best way to know is through a personalized consultation with Dr. Tepedino. However, you may be an ideal candidate if you:
Even if you have existing health conditions or have been told you don’t have enough bone for implants, you may still be a candidate. With advanced techniques like bone grafting and our in-house specialist team, we can often create a pathway to treatment for patients who thought they had no options.
The only way to know for sure is to get a professional evaluation. Contact us today for your free, no-pressure consultation. We’ll discuss your goals, conduct a thorough exam, and outline all possible paths to a healthier, complete smile.
Please note: These are estimated ranges. Your personalized treatment plan and final cost will be determined after a comprehensive consultation, which includes necessary diagnostics like 3D scans. Factors like the need for preliminary procedures (bone grafting, extractions) or the type of materials used will influence the total.
Understanding the investment in your smile is important.

| Snap-On Dentures | Stabilizing a removable denture for improved comfort and function | $6,000 – $12,000 for implant-supported overdenture | More affordable than fixed options. Uses two to four implants. Denture remains removable for cleaning |
| Dental Bridge | Replacing one or more missing teeth to restore your smile and bite | $2,500–$5,000 (depending on the number of units and materials) | Includes the custom dental bridge and placement.
